Currently Available Emblems (per day):
- PvP Daily (Arena, C&H, or Warzone) - 3 Emblems
- B'Tran Daily - 3 Emblems
- Explore B'Tran Cluster (repeatable every 30 minutes) - 1 Emblem
- Fleet Action Daily - 3 Emblems
- Aiding the Deferi Daily - 3 Emblems
- Rescuing the Breen Captives Daily - 1 Emblem
- Emancipation Daily - 1 Emblem
- Traelus Satellite Repair Daily - 1 Emblem
- Alhena Defense Contract Daily - 1 Emblem (random number of Computer Core Fragments for Salvage Dispute Daily/Unlockable)
- Aid the Sh'mar Daily - 1 Emblem
- Salvage Dispute Daily - 3 Emblems (Requires 10 Computer Core Fragments to unlock, usually available every 3rd or 4th Day, assuming that Alhena mission is completed each day.)
- STF Dailies - 5 Emblems (Each mission can be completed once per day, earning up to 5 Emblems, which are awarded in smaller increments at checkpoints through the missions. Can be done to a checkpoint and dropped the following day, in order to repeat the chosen checkpoint.)
TOTAL Potentially Available: 41 (Assuming that you are skilled/crazy enough to complete all 4 STF's in a 20-hour period, and that you have enough CCF's to unlock the Salvage Dispute Daily.)
TOTAL Realistically Available: 18 (On a normal, daily basis, without the time sink of the STF's or needing to have the 10 CCF's.)
Thus, 2 average days of emblem grinding will get you an Emblem Weapon or Console, while you can get an Engine, Shield, or Deflector in less than a week. Additionally, if you play multiple characters, it is often advisable to work on only one in a given day, but accept the available Daily Missions on your other characters; then, finish the Dailies on the character which you are working on. The following day, you will be able to accept the Missions with your first character, then you can switch to another character, and double up on all of the available Emblem missions (The Deferi and Eta Eridani Missions, in particular, can help to quickly crank out additional Emblems on a 'double-up' day.)
Even if you only prefer to do PvP Dailies, in much less than an hour, you can do the 3 Eta Eridani missions and Rescue the Breen Captive for 4 Extra Emblems per day, bringing your daily haul to 7 Emblems, earning you a Console in only 4 days, and a weapon in 5 days.
There are plenty of available Emblems, and new missions that award Emblems are being gradually added to the mix.

NOTE: I haven't had a chance to check the new Pi Canis missions for the Klingon side, but, if they award Emblems also, the KDF has an extra 3-6 Emblems available on a regular, daily basis.
